SENDCO

An exciting new opportunity has arisen within the Federation of Boldmere Schools for an enthusiastic and inspirational SENDCO who is committed to inclusion and holds the highest expectations for all children.

The Federation of Boldmere Schools is an inclusive three-form entry setting, comprising of our Nursery & Infant School, along with our Junior School and Boldmere Inclusion Base (BIB). We are situated in the Sutton Coldfield area of Birmingham. We offer places for children between the ages of 3-11 years, working closely as a Federation to ensure ‘outstanding’ provision for all our children.

Due to a change in the school’s strategic leadership structure, we are seeking to increase the leadership of SEND provision across the schools by appointing an additional SENDCO to work alongside the existing post-holder. It is likely that the newly appointed SENDCO will be primarily Junior School based.

We are looking for a SENDCO who:

Fully qualified teacher with a passion for teaching and learning for children with special educational needs or disabilities.
Has wide experience of working with children with a range of special educational needs and is committed to inclusive practice.
Is committed to working closely with all stakeholders, particularly parents, staff, and external partners to ensure they are involved and informed of their child’s progress.
Demonstrates highly effective communication and interpersonal skills.
Is self-motivated, hard-working and has high expectations for all.
Is dynamic in their ability to nurture, inspire and challenge all children.
Recognises and celebrates the uniqueness of every child.

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all employers and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will require an enhanced disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service. This post is covered by Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) and therefore the ability to speak fluent and spoken English is an essential for this role.

If you feel you have the necessary skills required and are interested in the joining our successful team, then we would like to hear from you. Informal visits to the school and our Inclusion Base are welcome and encouraged. Please contact the school office to book an appointment on one of the following visit dates/times:
